In this fascinating video, Dr. Graham H. Walker interviews renowned, "New York Times" bestselling, author Eric J. Metaxas regarding his new book, "Is Atheism Dead?"

"Is Atheism Dead?" is a highly entertaining, impressively wide-ranging, and decidedly provocative answer to the famous 1966 "Time" magazine cover that itself asked “Is God Dead?” In a voice that is witty, muscular, and poetic, Metaxas echoes C.S. Lewis and G.K. Chesterton in cheerfully and logically making the case, along the way presenting breathtaking new evidence and arguments against the idea of a Creatorless universe. Taken all together, he shows that much we have assumed about the biggest questions of human existence is in fact dramatically outdated—and is in need of the most urgent reevaluation. For example:

• Did you know that the most recent science inescapably points to a Creator God?
• Did you know that Christian faith led to the Scientific Revolution—and actually gave us modern science?
• Did you know it is actually not faith but atheism that is incompatible with science?

Eric J. Metaxas is Founder and Host of Socrates in the City and Host of "The Eric Metaxas Show." He received his B.A. in English from Yale University where he was Editor of "The Yale Record," the nation's oldest college humor magazine. Among his other bestselling books are "A Fish Out of Water"; "Martin Luther"; "Bonhoeffer"; "Miracles"; "Seven Women"; "Seven Men"; and "Amazing Grace: William Wilberforce and the Heroic Campaign to End Slavery." Metaxas’s books have been translated into 25 languages, and "Bonhoeffer" was named ECPA's “Book of the Year” and is the recipient of the John C. Pollock Award for Biography and Christopher Award in Nonfiction. He is also author or over 30 children’s books, including the bestsellers "Squanto and the Miracle of Thanksgiving"; "Uncle Mugsy & the Terrible Twins of Christmas"; "Prince of Egypt A to Z"; and "It's Time to Sleep, My Love."

“’Is Atheism Dead?’ displays the wonders of the universe, the chemistry of life, the vast archaeological evidence, and the thoughts and writings of great thinkers. . . . Yet another all-engaging Metaxas book.”
—James M. Tour, T.T. and W.F. Chao Professor of Chemistry and Professor of Materials Science & NanoEngineering, Rice University

“A beautifully written, highly readable compendium of scientific, archaeological, and historical evidence. . . . Highly recommended for anyone wrestling with the big questions!”
—Stephen Meyer, Director, Center for Science and Culture, Discovery Institute; author, “Return of the God Hypothesis”

“Metaxas does employ the proper awe at some of the scientific facts pointing to the existence of a God—namely the stunning fact that if the universe were lighter or denser by the mass of a single dime, life on Earth (as we know it) wouldn’t be possible.”
—"Publishers Weekly"

“In 'Is Atheism Dead?' Metaxas uncovers new evidence and arguments against the idea of a Creatorless universe. He draws on the insights of top scientists and five scientific discoveries to prove that atheism is untenable. . . .Metaxas stresses that science, archaeology and history don’t just support Christianity—they also undermine atheism.”
—"Christian Post"
